OUTBOARD MOTOR SERVICING - Replacing the internal engine Anode - Honda BF30

- Hi and welcome back
In this video I cover some outboard motor servicing that I did not cover in my first engine servicing video from a year ago. I replace the internal engine Anode. I also inspect the Timing Belt and replace the Motor Cowling Seal. This is specific to my motor, the Honda BF30 but it may be helpful to other makes as well.
This is my first video back after my accident in which I broke 6 ribs. I might not be ready to go boat camping yet but I thought this would be a good time to get the boat serviced and ready for my next adventure.

Glad to see you back. Looking forward to your video!
Thank you! looking forward to going camping again but still not sure when that will be.
Good to see you up and about.
Thanks.
Good to see you up and about mate!!
Thanks Ben. Still got a few aches and pains but getting there.
I too am seeing another anode on carb cleaning vids.It is in the intake and you run across it when removing carbs.I have been watching 50hp vids but Think 30 is similar.Cheers from Westcoast Canada!
I think your probably right. I have never taken them off to confirm it.
Good to see you back at it man
Thanks mate. Hopefully be back out on the water soon.
Very good Shannon, very informative. Made to look relative easy.
Cheers Kerry. 🍻
Hey as always a great video. I own a BF75hp and have learned a lot from your maintenance vids. I understand you’re almost healed up but not ready for boating yet... praying for you that you get back to 100% soon brother. Cheers
Thanks mate. Yeah starting to feel better. Hopefully get back on the water soon. 🍻
Hi,
Thank you so much for that. I saved a lot of money doing all this things myself.
Stay safe!
Glad it was helpful mate. 👍
Great job! Thanks for sharing. 👍👍
Cheers mate. Thanks for watching.
Glad to see you back mate! 🍺 happy Easter 🤘
Cheers Corey. Happy Easter to you.
Good to see you got to the anode in time, it looked horrible inside that water jacket. Cheers for the video again mate, great for a rainy Sunday!
Yeah it was a bit horrible in there. Hope none of the other cooling galleries are clogged like that. Thanks for watching James.
Another geat video mate, keep them coming 👍
Thanks Scott. 👍
Hello, awesome videos! I own the same Honda outboard engine and do the service also by myself. Learned a lot from your channel. Keep it up and thanks
No problem mate. You definitely save a lot of cash doing it yourself. 🍻
Good to see you back mate. Hope the ribs are good. Jeez I haven’t ever replaced my anodes, only my water pump. Safe travels mate. Look after those ribs. I like your work shop set up too. 😃👍
Cheer mate. Still not well enough to get out on the water but just getting the boat ready. Happy Easter.
Sorry mate just got to watching ur vid now an really enjoyed it very well explained 👍👍
Cheers D.
Welcome back mate. Currently sitting the van at caravan park at Broadwater waiting for this crap weather to pass so we can head out in the boat. At least we have RUclips LOL. 🤙
Thanks Shaun. Looks like it might be a few days before this weather passes unfortunately. I’m sure a few beers would help pass the time. 🍻
@@AusAdventure yeah just a few. 🙄 Cartons lol
Nice one
Thanks mate
Good to see a Milton mango to finish off the job too.
Every job needs to end with a Milton. 👍👍
Hi great video! I am also an owner of BF30. FYI there is another internal anode, the same like the one you changed, from the other side behind the manifold assembly . Much harder process to change it, so lets forget about it for now. But if you ever disassembly this part i.e. for carburetors cleaning, think of that! Greetings!
That’s interesting because I thought there was but when I went to get the parts at my local Honda dealer they told me there was only the one I did. Mind you it wasn’t one of their mechanics that I was talking to. Might have to query this again next time I am in there.
NICE ......
Cheers 🍻
Great stuff, I’ve got the same BF30D as you do and watched your vid an gave me confidence to give it a crack myself, so I ordered a service kit from Seasport Marine. When I seen you take that plate off my heart sunk thinking oh F here we go, Arwell something to look at doing now I guess, cheers and thankyou!
Hope the service goes smoothly for you Pete. 🍻
My bf 25 has an anode on the intake side as well so depending how bad the port side one is ,it may be a good idea to check that one as well.
Very good!
i'm from Brazil, i have a four stroke BF 40.
here it is very difficult to find spare parts!
Thanks mate. Hope the video was helpful.
I got a older BF60 now battling to get parts. Time to upgrade.
I wouldn’t mind an upgrade too but I am thinking of buying a new boat. So will see what happens. Thanks for watching mate.
taken something that looks hard and detailed all aspects to break it down and seem alot easier to do
Hope it was helpful mate.
Your videos are great! Maybe I missed it but can you tell me the length of your boat? Would be great if you could do a boat tour video where you go over the specs and the various mods you made and why. Thanks!
It’s 4.2m in length. I do show some of the features in my USB install video. Thanks for watching the vids mate.
Thanks for the clear video,
but on the other side of the manifold intake is also an anode.
Regards Dennis
Cheers Dennis. When I first asked at my local Honda shop the lady at the counter told me there wasn't one on the intake side so I took her word for it. But as you said I have since found out there is one. I have heard it is a real pain to get to also.
@@AusAdventure
It is certainly doable, and you can clean the ports well.
Buy a new gasket before you start the job.
Hey mate, recently bought a 2013 bf30 and your vids have helped a heap with servicing etc, was wondering what speed you get on your motor, and what prop your using as i need a new one, cheers 👍🏼
Hi Isaac. The top speed I get is 25 knots with not much weight in the boat. If I’m loaded up on a camping trip it tops out at 21 knots. I just have the standard prop which came with the motor from new. Glad the vids have been helpful. 🍻
You ship those stubbie coolers to Finland legend?
Love your adventures mate, I love doing the same myself but the old 25 yammy 2 banger is a bit thirsty. What sort of fuel consumption does the bf30 have? I hear they're great motors and im looking to get myself a 4 stroke. Cheers mate 🍻
It’s great on fuel mate. If the boat is light I can get around 4km per litre so nearly 100km from one 25l tank. That changes with home heavy my boat is and how I drive it. Definitely worth the upgrade. Cheers for watching the vids.
My son just got 1 of these, I watched your 1st vid on servicing thanks for that. I down loaded a manual. I have not had a good look at the motor yet but there seems to be no mention of air filters. Do they have an element ??
No mate no air filter. Thanks for watching the vids.
About to do first time maintenance on an engine BF50A that I don’t think it’s been serviced in quite a while. My question is since I’m replacing the thermostat I will check it for debris and check the anode like you did in this video my feeling it’s may have a lot of muck/ sand in there because it has been operated in shallow water sandy bottom. Also do you think it’s absolutely necessary to replace that water jacket gasket or do you think the one that you removed would’ve been OK if maybe just lubricated? I suppose I would just have to check the gasket and make a call then and also the same with the anode. I do not have an impact screwdriver how tight was that screw do you think? On the anode I mean. 2004 BF50A Thanks Dooley
Hi Doolie. Definitely clean out as much debris as you can from the cooling gallery. You will just have to inspect the seal and make a call as to its condition and replace it if necessary. That Anode screw was incredibly tight and you will have a lot of trouble without an impact driver so my advice would be to buy one. Good luck with the service.
Nice work mate, thanks. I buy my parts from Outboard Spares, excellent service. Do you flush your motor after use with something like Salt-Away? Cheers
Mate I have never tried Salt Away but I have considered it. I think you can use Vinegar too. Might try one of them at some point. Thanks for watching the vid. 👍
@@AusAdventure no worries, I was apprehensive about Salt Away but I’d never look back now, it’s great stuff.
What's up brother awesome video by any chance you have the part numbers for the service I plan to dona full over haul
Sorry mate but I don’t have the part numbers. 🍻
Any tips/tricks on that cowling seal? Lost mine in the water. Have a new one and it seems damn near impossible to get on.
The most important thing is to make sure it going on the right way. I started to put it on inside out and it’s impossible. When I realised and turned it out the correct way it was so much easier. Also leave it in the sun for a while to warm it up or use a hair dryer which makes it softer and easier to work with. Good luck.
@@AusAdventure there's the problem. It looks like it should go on inside-out. It seems to naturally want to be inside-out as well. Flipped it and got it snug.
Hi there,
I have a question about the water temperature of the tell-tale
It's cold on my BF30D.
I know that there is also cooling water through the propeller that leaves the engine
now i have problems with overheating.
The waterways are probably clogged, and the cylinder head has to be removed to be able to clean everything properly.
The area under the thermostat was very dirty.
water pump has been replaced and the water jet is powerful .
Actually I'm a bit afraid to disassemble the cylinder head.
I serviced the carbaratures and timeingbelt but still......
thanks in advance,
Dennis from Holland
Hi Dennis my tell tale is fairly cold also. If you have already cleaned all the easy to access cooling galleries you may need to remove the head. My advice would be to seek advice from your local Honda service agent. Good luck.
Thanks for the quick response, I'll do a full speed test, maybe the problem is fixed.
Dennis
I wonder if greasing the bolt would increase the electrical resistance between the block and the zinc?
Not sure mate.
Hi nice video ! Can you help me ? I ve mounted the lower gear unit but when i put forward the gear , the prop make a click when i try to turn by hands . But in reverse the props doesn t turn by hand . Thanks
All you could do is double check the gear lever is adjusted properly. With out seeing your engine it is difficult for me to diagnose the problem. you will probably have to take it to your local marine mechanic.
@@AusAdventure thanks a lot .
My bf 25 has an anode on the intake side as well.
When I asked about that at my Honda dealer the lady said to me there wasn’t on mine but I’m thinking she was wrong. If there is it will be a bigger job to change.
@@AusAdventure I just looked at both sides as I had a carby issue so I had to take it off.
Looking at the gunk you have on the thermo side ,I would say that the carby side will be just as bad and probably worse because mine looked the same as yours did ..
One question, the Honda bf 50 has 2 anodes, the bf 30 only have one?
Initially I was told there was only one on the exhaust side. However I believe there is one on the intake side but you have to pull a lot of stuff off to get to it. Will have to confirm that with a Honda mechanic though.
@@AusAdventure thanks man! I’m Spanish and I don’t understand everything, great canal! 🤙🤙🤙
For someone who obviously takes good care of their engine, why do you think there was so much buildup in the water jacket?
That was actually the first time I had replaced that internal anode so it was a couple of years of build up.
Hey mate, just want to ask you if you need a license to drive a boat like yours here in Queensland. Thanks mate
Yes mate any vessel with an engine greater than 6hp you need a marine license.
Hey mate would you be interested in serving a 115 Yamaha 4 stroke ? Would rather support you than a big dealer ?
Mate I have enough trouble finding the time to service my own stuff with family and work etc. Thanks for the offer though but can’t help you with that. If you want to support the channel tell your friends about it or grab yourself something off my website wwwausadventure.net. Thanks for watching mate.
Can someone tell me what year my BF50D would be
Your local Honda Marine dealer would probably be best at telling you that mate.
What is the cowling seal part number
Sorry mate. Got no idea.
Nesesito el estar del honda 30
Not sure what you’re saying mate but hope you liked the video.
Presios del estar d un 30 honda
Not sure what you mean mate. Translation to English didn’t make sense.
You ship those stubbie coolers to Finland legend?
For you mate I would.
